Hello,

We are a family of three children and me. I have a fourth child, George, who is away at university. The twins, Judy and William, are 12 and Henry is 16. They are clever children and they will make your life interesting! The will ask you lots of questions and they will be pleased to answer your questions and to teach you good English.

We had au pairs when our children were very small but my wife decided she didn't want any more. Now my wife has moved out and the children are here much of the time but not all of the time. I would like to welcome you to our house, help you to improve your English and work with you to provide a happy, fun environment for my children, for you and for me! There will be less work on days when the children are not here so that would be a good time for you to take English classes in Reading or Newbury.

There is a nice, big bedroom for you, with a comfortable bed and I can let you have a computer if you do not bring one of your own. I would like you to do some cleaning and some ironing. If you can cook that would be helpful too. If not, I can teach you (I have been a professional cook). We are in a rural (countryside) community but trains from Reading can get you into London in 25 minutes (and soon they will be faster).

If you think you might like to come and stay with us, I will be pleased to answer any questions you may have. I look forward to talking to you and, perhaps, seeing you here in England!
